Embossing Taster Session

This taster session explores embossing techniques to produce subtle images on paper. 

The process uses no ink but creates raised and textured areas on paper using a range of different found materials. 

You will discover how to soak and use a range of papers to create embossed pieces using our traditional etching presses in the workshop.
